Reviewer Comments: This is the 2nd Thanksgiving we have stayed for a week at this cabin. The cabin itself is beautiful and well decorated. Last year it was pretty clean but this year we definitely had issues of overall cleanliness- there was mold in all the showers, frequent foul odor smells, and we dealt with numerous pests (spiders, wasps, roach/beetles, ladybugs galore). There were cobwebs all around the rooms. The cleaning and pest control really need to be stepped back up- we didnt encounter any of this last year. However, the home is beautiful and well stocked with everything we needed- the fireplace is fantastic and the neighbor with the playground was perfect for our family! We would definitely consider staying again if the above issues were resolved ##### Lindsay T.

The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have always enjoyed this cabin. Now, it is full of cheesy, dusty decorations and taxidermied animals. It wreaked of mothballs when we arrived. There was a rotting jackelope head in the garage that someone had placed in a bucket of mothballs. The Christmas decorations were still up. The deck and furniture were covered in pollen. There was a large grease spill in the oven. The grill knobs caught on fire when we used the grill! There are two windows that will not close. The bath mats were dirty. Overall, it just felt like no one cared this time. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### steve b. Jan 6, 2019 #### ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!

Reviewer Comments: We met four of our family members in Maggie Valley for Fathers Day weekend. The house is warm and inviting with very comfortable beds. The kitchen was stocked with everything you need. We spent all day Sunday playing downstairs in the game room. Part of our family went whitewater rafting and the others toured the Biltmore. However we spent most of weekend on deck enjoying that stunning mountain view. Sunsets were breathtaking also looked at the night sky with the telescope and stayed up late talking. Made memories last a lifetime. ##### Frank and Paula E. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2018 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Deb B.

We wished they had televisions in the bedrooms. I feel the property may rent better with them. The game/tv room downstairs was full of fun activity items...pool table, darts, air hockey, basketball game set. The cabin was spotless, everthing in working order. The house will not ever disappoint! Do yourself a favor and stay here. 30 minutes to Cherokee and 30 minutes to Asheville and 10 minutes from cute historic Waynesville. ##### Beth A.
